Deeli's Homemade Guacamole

Ingredients:

• 2 large avocados, peeled, pitted, and mashed

• 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup yellow onion, finely diced
• 1/2 small tomato, seeded and finely diced
• 2 Tbsp. fresh cilantro, finely chopped
• 1/2 tsp. crushed garlic
• salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Stir together the avocado and lemon juice in a glass serving bowl, add the onion, tomato, cilantro, and garlic, mix well, season with the salt and pepper, and serve.

If you are not serving immediately, store in the refrigerator covered with a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the guacamole and then another piece around the top of the bowl to help keep it from turning brown. Some people swear by keeping an avocado seed in the center of the guacamole to help keep from browning, but I've never tried it.
